This is like disagreeing with m personal claim >that I don't like the color blue. :) you are totally right, I should have put: "someone who simply creates a cloud can also say something to me" and you dont know how you hit me in a moment that I doubt strongly about my urge to teach anything here (and to my girl friend, thats where the impulse comes from), while the learning really comes from playing, and for this, I contribute with instruments and music :-) and for a nice exchange of subtle ideas, this channel is slow, I spend too much time reading and trying to find understandable words... >All in all, however, I understand what you are trying to say here. >Sometimes a simple device or bit of artistic expression can be inspiring >or interesting to someone. I concede to all exceptions, of course. anything is somehow interesting to me, at least for a little moment :-) -- ---> http://Matthias.Grob.org
